Service was very good, our server Katie was cute, friendly and checked on us regularly. The restaurant was pretty loud, mostly from the bar, though there were not many people there ( no soundproofing ) and we always got a cold swell, when somebody opened the front door.
Cocktails were great, loved the hot toddy and the virgin ginger Margerita. Food was a mixed bag. Some dishes were good, like the crispy pork belly with squash, the fries with truffle aioli or the shrimp and grits ( A little bit on the vinegary side, but after you got used to it, delicious ). Others were quite disappointing, especially the French onion Vol au vent ( the puff pastry was barely baked and soggy, the flavors unbalanced ) and the sides for the Filet Mignon. The crispy potatoes were burnt. Pork chop was good, but the sauce unbalanced again, and way to sweet. Plating in general was not a strength of the kitchen, some looked not very appealing.
